Presentation transcript:

A patron saint is supposed to speak to God on a nation’s behalf.

Andrew was already a friend of John the Baptist and had heard about Jesus. When Jesus called him he immediately left his nets and followed Jesus. Andrew became one of the twelve disciples. One day Simon (named Peter) and his brother Andrew were fishing on the lake when Jesus called to them. He said, “Follow Me, and I will make you fishers of men.” Matthew 4:19 How did he become a friend of Jesus?

Andrew carried on talking about Jesus for two whole days before he died. He is said to have died on November 30 th.

When is Saint Andrew’s Day? St. Andrew’s Day is connected with Advent, which begins on the nearest Sunday to 30 November. St. Andrew’s Day marks the opening of Christmas Christmas Markets.

People celebrate the day by going to a ceilidh, where they do Scottish Country dancing.

The evening before St Andrew’s day it is traditional for girls to pray to St Andrew for a husband.

The thistle. A group of Scots were sleeping in a field when a group of Vikings crept up to attack. Fortunately one of the Vikings stood on a thistle and was pricked by its thorns. He yelped in pain, waking the sleeping Scots who were able to fight off their attackers. So the legend of why the thistle has been adopted as Scotland’s national emblem. What is the national emblem of Scotland?
